You'll likely have to pay the 4.225% Use Tax. As it says on the Missouri web-page, "the purchaser is responsible for remitting the tax to the department if the out-of-state seller does not collect use tax on the transaction."

Here's the link to Missouri's Sales & Use Tax web-page:

Use Taxes are little known, but with greater and greater use of the internet for ordering stuff (eBay, Amazon, etc.), states are working harder to collect this revenue.
